1. Cortney S.
“Cortney was incredible with Lilly, going over and above to make her feel at home and comfortable. This was Lily’s first time using Rover, and she is with us most of the time, so we were not sure how she would do going to a place she was not familiar with, and staying the night. She slept through the night without so much as a bark or a whine and that says she felt really comfortable and at peace. Cortney responded very quickly to any times we asked how Lilly was doing and quickly provided an update. We will definitely use Cortney’s services the next time we travel to. Lynchburg with Lilly. Thank you Cortney for taking such good care of her!”
2. Monica M.
“My pup had lots of fun with Monica! She always responds and sends pictures, which I love! She’s very considerate and flexible, we will definitely be sending our pup back in the future!”
3. Aquilla F.
“Fantastic service! Riley had such a good time and I got the cutest photo updates. Was super flexible when I unexpectedly had to extend a day. 11/10!”
4. Joleen P.
“I had the absolute pleasure of having Joleen as my dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Joleen went above and beyond to ensure that my high-energy Labrador, Bo, had a fantastic stay, even when I had to seek help last minute for an unexpected trip during the Fourth of July holiday. Her flexibility and willingness to accommodate my last-minute request was so great! One of the highlights was the frequent updates she provided. Joleen would send me adorable photos and videos of Bo, allowing me to see the fun they were having together. It was incredibly reassuring and heartwarming to see him enjoy his time while I was away for multiple days. Not only did Joleen provide exceptional care, but she also had amazing amenities that made Bo's stay even more enjoyable. Her property featured a fence, small pool, and hose, which turned out to be a real treat for Bo during the warm summer days. Seeing Bo happily splashing around and cooling off in the pool brought a smile to my face. Joleen's thoughtful provision of these amenities added an extra level of fun and excitement to Bo's time with her. She took the time to play fetch with Bo, which happens to be his favorite game. The joy and enthusiasm brought to playtime made it clear that she genuinely cared about providing a fun and engaging experience. Joleen is an exceptional dog sitter who goes above and beyond to provide a wonderful experience for myself and Bo. I highly recommend Joleen as a dog sitter for anyone seeking a caring and attentive individual who will treat their furry friend like family!”
5. Marketa C.
“Marketa and family were absolutely wonderful hosts for my 8 month old shepherd mix. They provide continuity with at home expectations, superb communication, silly updates and quirky photo moments. We felt so comfortable leaving Bodhi with her. She has a fence, another dog to play with, kids and she only accepts one dog at a time. We’ll def be calling again. ?”
6. Falen F.
“Falen and Dani were great. They have two adorable kids and a fenced yard. They had another dog they were dogsitting but one that was obviously very sociable and friendly. On top of it all, they were flexible on the pick up time. Would definitely recommend.”
7. Wendy D.
“My girl had so much fun in this loving home!! Wendy took care of every need I had addressed for the time I would be gone and then went far beyond all needs and expectations!”
8. Donna W.
“Donna took excellent care of Journey! She is good a wore out and was treated like one of the family!! We will definitely be using her again!!”
9. Sarah F.
“Sarah has walked our dog Lacie many times. Also came for wellness checks while we were out of town. Even spent the night one night. Lacie was happy to see us when we returned. When Sarah dropped by one time Lacie’s eyes lit up like she was greeting a dear friend. Lacie has dietary and medication needs and Sarah paid close attention to them. She even clarified our directions and wrote them up for us to make sure she got it right. Also made sure that she knew Lacie’s medical history and our vet’s contact information.”
10. Casey L.
“We were so happy to find Casey to watch our dog. She did an amazing job and gave us such a peace of mind leaving our dog for the first time. She was easy to communicate with during our time away and graciously sent us pictures through the stay. We can’t recommend Casey enough!”
11. Eman W.
“Eman was excellent! She has excellent skills with dogs and sent us pictures throughout the day of our baby! He slept well and had fun on their farm on nature walks! This is Kings first time ever staying with anyone other than family, Eman was just like family and we appreciate her!”
12. Adelena D.
“Adelena has taken care of my pets when I'm away since she was 15. I have a dog, Daisy, that loves when Lena stays over, and a special needs cat, Poofins, that needs medicine 3 times a day. Lena has always come through, and has taken great care of both of them. I know I can always rely on her. If you need dogwalking or pet care of any kind, Lena is trustworthy and kind to animals, and absolutely respectful of my home.”
13. Mary T.
“Mary and her husband were AMAZING!! I booked this stay super last minute, she answered me almost immediately and was super exited to watch my pup. Mary was the first babysitter I got for my pup that actually updated me frequently with super sweet messages and adorable photos! When i went to pick up my pup Mary handed me a little goodie bag full of treats with my pups photo on it! It was one of the sweetest things ever and super super thoughtful! I really couldn’t recommend her more!”
14. Alexis R.
“Alexis took very good care of my puggle Daisy. She was quick to respond and messaged with pictures to show Daisy was enjoying herself. When I need a sitter again I will definitely contact Alexis.”
15. Jessi & Jon-Eric H.
“Jessi and her husband have watched my dog many times; from a day to 10 days. They always send pictures, usually every day. They are very communicative and have been flexible with drop off and pick up times. They have even given Daisy her regular flea/tick and heartworm meds when it happens to fall on a date they have her. Daisy is always excited when she gets to their house, and seems to get plenty of time outside and inside their house. I will continue using Jessi and her husband.”
16. Rebekkah D.
“Rebekkah was absolutely fantastic! Great communication, updates, and overall, we felt so comfortable leaving our boy with her from the very first communications. Our dog is blind and she was so courteous and welcoming to his needs. 11/10 for her level of care!”
17. Blair W.
“My boxer doesn’t like most people, but the dog is obsessed with Blair. I know Bella is in good hands whenever I have to go out of town and have to leave her behind. Would recommend Blair to anyone needing a helping hand with their pets.”
18. holly T.
“Holly and her family were great with my dog Luna! She loved her time exploring and playing there. She had so much space to run around with them and their dogs, and came back a very happy and tired girl. I couldn't be more happy with how much love and attention she received!”
19. Katie M.
“Katie is wonderful. She watched our 11 month old puppy with the most loving care. We were so nervous about leaving our new puppy, but felt so comfortable with her. Highly recommended.”
20. Kathryn K.
